nisi decree

Read a random definition: fixture

A quick definition of nisi decree:

A nisi decree is a court decision that is not yet final. It can become final if no one objects within a certain amount of time. It is often used in divorce cases. Once the time has passed, the decree becomes absolute and cannot be changed. There are many different types of decrees, including ones that determine child custody, distribute property after someone dies, and declare a marriage to be void.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A court's decree that will become absolute unless the adversely affected party shows the court, within a specified time, why it should be set aside. It is a type of court order, especially in a matrimonial case, that is not yet final and can be changed or reversed.

Example: In a divorce case, a nisi decree is issued by the court, which means that the divorce is not yet final and can be challenged by either party within a certain time frame. If no objections are raised, the decree becomes absolute and the divorce is finalized.

This example illustrates how a nisi decree is a temporary court order that can be changed or reversed if necessary. It gives both parties a chance to contest the decision before it becomes final.
